NAZIS ARREST HEAD OF
FRENCH JEWISH BODY
The Y. M. H. A. membership
drive started last Sunday night
at a "kick-off" meeting at the Y
auditorium. A small attendance
was caused by inclement weather.
The meeting was opened by
Leo Ackerman, president of
the "Y" who outlined the pur-
pose of the drive. Addressing
the gathering were: Bernard Ster-
ling, chairman of the membership
drive; George Wolpert, chairman
of the publicity committee for
the membership drive; George
Chertkof, chairman of the board
of directors; Milton A. Friedman,
past president of the "Y", and
Rabbi Max Shapiro.
Sgt. Bela Urban rendered sev-
eral violin selections accompan-
ied by his wife, Virginia Urban.
A great deal of friendly com-
petition and rivalry in the "Y"
drive is attributed to the inter-
ent in the Y that all the workers
have been showing. George Wol-
pert will award a silver loving
cup to'the person obtaining the
highest number of individual
members. The results at this
time show a very keen competi-
tion.
The drive will end Wednesday,
September 22.
Geneva (JTA)Raoul Lam-
bert, Jewish leader and president
of the central Jewish organiza-
tion of French Jews permitted to
exist under the Vichy regime,
was arrested by German occupa-
tion authorities in Marseilles with
his family, it was learned here.
Andre Baur, vice-president of the
same organization, was also ar-
rested.
More than 10,000 Jewish child-
ren are wandering through all
parts of France as a result of the
mass arrests and deportations of
their parents. It is feared that
these children will soon be round-
ed up by German occupation au-
thorities and interned in a camp.
Local Jewish relief groups in
France are doing what they can
to save the children, but without
the aid of international organiza-
tions there is little likelihood that
the youngsters will be saved.

SURRENDER OF ITALY
AIDS HUNGARIAN JEWS
Stockholm (JTA)Italy's un-
conditional surrender to the Al-
lies will have repercussions not
only in the Balkan countries, but
also in Hungary and will affect
the position of the Jews there, it
is predicted in the Swedish press,
which emphasizes that Hungary
now has the largest Jewish pop-
ulation in Central Europe.
The Goeteborg Handels-och
Sjofarts-Tidning. a Swedish lib-
eral newspaper, takes the occas-
ion to again warn against the
systematic attempts which are
now being made by Hungarian
propaganda to present the posi-
tion of Jews in other parts of
Europe.

Moscow (JTA)A "Black
Book" describing Nazi atrocities
against Jews in occupied Lith-
uania was published here this
week. The facts, compiled by A.
Serkin, contain horrible details
of the Nazi mass-extermination
of Jews in Kaunas, Vilkomir and
other Lithuanian cities. The book
also has a section describing the
activities of Jewish guerilla fight-
ers in occupied Lithuania.
The correspondent of the Jew-
ish Telegraph Agency today vis-
ited a hospital in which were a
number of Lithuanian Jews who
were wounded at the front while
fighting with the Russian army.
Itzik Shafirus, one of the wound-
ed, pointed out that all six mem-
bers of his family, former resi-
dents of Kaunas, are now fight-
ing in the Russian ranks and that
one of his brothers had killed 103
Germans in a machine-gun fight.
"You will find many Jewish fami-
lies from Lithuania all fighting
together against the Germans."
he said.
DR. ISRAEL GOLDSTEIN

Zionist Organization of America
at the afternoon session of the
36th national convention of the
ZOA, which met here with more
than 1.000 delegates in attend
ance. He succeeds Judge Louis

tablish a permanent representa-
tion in the Middle East to deal
with general relief problems and
to secure first-hand information
concerning the Jewish communi-
ties of occupied Europe.

ciation in Lisbon will facilitate

JEWS DENY CHARGES
RECRUITING IS ILLEGAL
Jerusalem (JTA)The question
of whether it is lawful for the
Jewish Agency to supervise the
recruitment of Jewish volunteers
in Palestine for the British armed
forces was again raised this week
at the military tribunal which is
conducting the "Arms Trial."
This time the question was
raised by Dr. Philip Joseph, the
counsel for the defense. While
examining Golda Meirson. one
of the leaders of the Histadruth.
the Jewish lawyer referred to the
statement made yesterday bv the
president of the court, in which
he questioned the legality of the
Jewish Agency's recruiting activ-
ities.
Zurich (JTA)A new Commis-
sariat for Jewish Questions has
been created within the Rumania
Labor Secretariat, under a new
law issued by the Ministry of
Health. Labor and Public Wel-
fare, the official German news
agency. DNB, reported this week.
The new commissariat. DNB
says, will supervise the organiza-
tion of Jewish forced labor, re-
duce the number of Jews in the
professions and will supervise all
Jewish centers and organizations
for emigration. Hitherto, the last
two functions were performed by
the government Delegate for Set-
tlement of the Jewish Question.
The Bucharest radio this week
announced that under a new
amendment to the "Rumaniza-
tion" Law severe punishment
will be meted out to violators of
the regulation. It also quotes an
article in the anti-Semitic Iron
Guard newspaper, Perunca Vre-
mi, attacking Dr. William Fild-
erman, Jewish leader, who was
recently allowed to return to Bu-
charest from Transnistria.
THE ALLIES
Cairo (JTA)The question of
arranging immediate assistance
by the Joint Distribution Com-
mittee for 20.000 Jewish refugees
from Nazi-held territories who
have been interned in Italy since
the outbreak of the war will be
taken up with the Allied authori-
ties at their headquarters in Al-
geria. Dr. Joseph Schwartz. Eu-
ropean director of the J. D. C,
told the Jewish Telegraphic Ag-
ency this week.
Dr. Schwartz said he is pro-
ceeding at once to Algeria to ap-
proach the representatives of the
United Nations with regard to the
best and most effective ways to
deal not only with the situation
of the Jewish refugees in Italy,
but also with the special needs of
the Italian Jewish population. He
will also seek permission for a
J. D. C. representative to be ad-
mitted into Italy in order to
study the Jewish relief situation
there and undertake necessary
measures to cope with the special
Jewish relief problems.
While the immediate question
of feeding Italy's pouplation is
expected to be handled by the
military authorities through the
AMG. there is wide-range activ-
ity in the liberated territory
which could best be discharged
by private agencies, Dr. Schwartz
believes.

torney General, the Commission-
er of Immigration and Naturali-
zation Service shall, after inves-
tigation fully establishing their

lated that hundreds of Jews suc-
ceeded in escaping from Kharkov

joining the Russian forces by
walking days and nights through

valuable information to the Rus-
sian army, he added.

j and justice by the statesmen of
the world," he declared.
President Roosevelt, in a mes-
sage sent to the convention,
stressed that "all feasible meas-
ures are being adopted to lessen
the sufferings of the persecuted
Jews of Europe." He expressed
confidence that "the helpful con-
tribution made by American cit-
izens towards the establishment
of a national home for the Jew-
ish people in Palestine will be
; continued." The text of the pres-
| ident's message reads:
I "As the delegates to this con-
| ference assembled to consider
! means of alleviating the suffer-
ing of the Jewish people, I cannot
but express my horror at the cru-
ellies visited upon innocent peo-
ple by Axis authorities in the
territories they occupy. The at-
titude of this government in re-
gard to these atrocities was ably
expressed by the Secretary of
State in a statement he issued on
October 30. 1942. and I wish to
emphasize that all feasible meas-
ures are being adopted to lessen
the suffering of the persecuted
| Jews of Europe. I am confident
I that the helpful contributions
mad by American citizens to-
wards the establishment of a na-
tional home for the Jewish peo-
ple in Palestine will be contin-
ued."
Daniel Frisch of Indianapolis
announced that the Zionist Or-
ganization of America will launch
a campaign to increase its mem-
bership for the coming year from
67,000 to 150,000. He stressed
the need for a larger membership
in the organization and urged the
Jews of America to bend all ef-
forts to swell the ranks of the Zi-
onist Organization of America.
In a resolution adopted at the.
last day of the convention, the
delegates appealed to the leaders
of the United Nations to immedi-
ately initiate discussions with the
Jewish Agency "in order to de-
termine the role that Palestine
must play in meeting the desper-
ate needs of the dispossessed
masses of the Jewish people and
to secure its rightful place in the
post-war world. The text of the
resolution reads:
"We demand the immediate
termination of the prevailing pol-
icy of the mandatory power in
the Palestine administration. We I
reject the Palestine Administra-
tion's so-called post-war recon-
struction plan for Palestine,
which, based on the White Paper
of 1939, is calculated to stifle
these developments and reduce
the Jewish homeland into a
ghetto. We condemn the villifi-
cation of the Jewish Agency
brought about by the transforma-
tion of a military police court
into a propaganda forum to im-
pugn, the Palestine Jewish war
effort. We deplore the censorship
which has prevented a fair report
of the magnitude and signifi-
cance of Palestine's Jewish con-
tributions to the winning of the
war.
.L "W.
the White Paper of 1939 and the
opening of the gates of Palestine
to a large Jewish immigration
under the control and direction
of the Jewish Agency which shall
be vested with authority to de-
velop the country to the maxi-
mum for the benefit of all its in-
habitants. In the rebuilding of
the Jewish commonwealth, we
pledge full regard for the relig-
ious, linguistic, and cultural
rights of the Arab population of
Palestine, and the civil and relig-
ious equality of its inhabitants
before the law. The inviolability
of the holy places of the various
religions shall be guaranteed.
,,"^' appeal to the leaders of
the United Nations now that post
war plans are maturing, to ini-
}u Wlthut delay discussions
with the Jewish Agency for Pal-
estine, that internationally desig-
nated spokesmen of the Jewish
people, in order to determine the
role which Palestine must play in
meeting the desperate needs of
the dispossessed masses of the
Jewish people and to secure its
rightful place in the post-war
world.
"We pledge all our resources
to the end that the Jewish Com-
monwealth may be rebuilt on the
foundations of a sound economic
basis, of an enlightened world
opinion and of a world which will
restore and safeguard the polit-
ical rights of all peoples."
The convention hailed the de-
claration of the American Jew-
ish Conference, which calls for
the reconstruction of Palestine as
a Jewish Commonwealth and
urged a mobilization of American
public opinion for the attainment
of this demand.

I. E. A. ONCE MORE
As we go to press another attempt is be-
ing made to revive and put into operation the
now oft-tried and failed Jewish Education As-
sociation. There are some that will question
the foregoing statement. Their assumption in
our opinion would be that the J. E. A. is not
being revived but that further plans are in
the process of effecting a successful Jewish Ed-
ucation Program for this community.
Call it what you may, we point a finger
of caution at the leaders of J. E. A. They are
not profiting by their mistakes of the past.
Experience is a dear teacher and the trials
and tribulations resulting in the downfall of the
J. E. A. and this group under other names
should be a guiding lesson for future action.
Conferences were held in New York. Di-
rectors were investigated and interviewed and
possibly by the time this publication is in the
hands of its readers the handful of adherents
of a shell of a Jewish Education Association
will have adopted a motion hiring a director
and having him on his way to our city.
Have these gentlemen solved the problem
in the Southwest'' Have they the answers to
the questions of the Miami Beach organizations
that wilf secure their cooperation and their
joining this program? Have they a sound
financial budget that is not problematical but
factual? Have they a program that has been
accepted and approved by the constituent
bodies? Do constituents exist to this organiza-
tion that has not lived up to its agreements
with these members? Is there a J. E. A.?
We clearly see that once more will the hit
and miss method be put into operation. Com-
munity funds will once again be risked. A
professional directorthat is sorely needed
and definitely a necessity where there is some-
thing to directwill be brought here with an
education association but the figment of imag-
ination emanating from a left-over embryonic
skeleton of former attempts.
Miami has grown. It is not the infant so
many believe it still to be. Just any old plan
will not have the support nor can it be pres-
sured into the laps of any synagogue or tem-
ple. This, our leaders have failed to realize.
They discussed with the National head of the
Education Association his coming here for. a
survey of our community. What is the best
plan for this area? What must be done to fill
and meet educational needs of this commun-
ity? What structure must the form of this or-
ganization be in its beginning0 What plan
will satisfy and secure the cooperation of ex-
isting agencies? What set-up will eliminate
and do away with the objections of previous
attempts? These and many more are the
questions that the leaders of Jewish Educa-
tion here must ask themselves. A satisfactory
answer must be reached before we attempt to
span a bridge that previous jumps have failed
to cross. This survey must be made!
Fully cognizant are weand we lay our-
selves wide open with this statementof the
deplorable state and lack of a satisfactory ed-
ucation program in our community. We have
supported and are in favor of a unified educa-
tion program. Once again we must cry out
and reiterate previous editorializing. A suc-
cessful Jewish Education Association must be
carefully planned. The organizational work
must be accomplished before a director is se-
cured. The stamp of approval which brings
with it participation must be obtained from the
community and the majority of existing agen-
cies now serving this endeavor. The scope
of this endeavor under an association must be
clearly outlined and its limitations definitely
defined.
Better that they be conservative and limited
in a program at the outset and be successful
than all encompassing and doomed to failure.
With these items on a completed agenda then
will this community have as an integral part
a serviceable supported and satisfying Jew-
ish Education Program.
HOME HOSPITALITY
As this season of the year rolls around the
hospitality group of the Jewish Welfare Board
local Army and Navy Committee finds itself
exerting every effort in extending hospitality
to those in service that find themselves in our
community at this time.
Home hospitality means much to those who
are away from home and especially at the
High Holy Days. Normal living as compared
to their present mode is a vast comparison and
for the majority a radical and revolutionary
charge. This touch of home away from home,
this opportunity to spend the Holidays in a
Jewish atmosphere and environment is one of
the strongest of morale providers. It instills
courage and provides a brief period of relax-
ation and home surroundings that fill the in-
dividual with the feeling of getting back to
the job and finishing it so that once more they
can return to normal.
Many families, when asked last year to
extend the hospitality of their home on this oc-
casion graciously did so. In many instances
there was disappointment because of last min-
ute Military Orders. Control of these factors
are beyond the efforts of any group and our
residents must realize these are war times and
there are war time regulations. Past experi-
ences of this nature must be overlooked and
every effort extended to provide hospitality for
as many of those in service as possible. Do
your partcall the J. W. B. today, 9-1323, and
avail yourself of an opportunity to serve the
home front.

LISTEN HERE ....
Aftermath of the American Jewish Conference: There's a
possibility of the Conference reconvening within the next
few months, probably in the city of Chicago Clamor will
not die as to why the Conference didn't take up the prob-
lems of anti-Semitism in this country You may not have
known it, incidentally, but there was a strong group which
wanted the Conference completely dissolved after this first
conclave Queen Wilhelmina of The Netherlands, who
celebrated her birthday very quietly in exile a couple of
weeks ago, hopes to mark the occasion in her traditional
manner next summer The traditional manner includes, in
addition to any number of official receptions and other func-
tions, a personal visit by Her Majesty to the Joden Breetstraat
(Main Street of the Jews) and other parts of the American
Jewish quarter.
YOU SHOULD KNOW ....
Did you know that Otto Lilienthal, the German Jewish
glider pilot of the nineteenth century, had also designed a
regular motor-driven airplane, but was killed in a glider
crash the day before he was to have made his first flight in
that plane? This is just one of the innumerable facts on
flying you can find in Milton Figen's "Pocket Aviation Quiz
Book," which will help you keep up with the news from the
world's flying fields And did you know that the late Leon
S. Moisseff, the famous bridge-builder, worked his way
through the Columbia School of Mines by writing articles
for the Yiddish press, and in the course of this work intro-
duced to the Yiddish-reading masses the writings of Walt
Whitman and Henriz Ibsen?
READERS' GUIDE ....
A most moving war document appeared in the Septem-
ber issue of Nailebn ... It is the last letter of Private Sidney
Rabinowitz, who at the age of 21, died in action in the North
African campaign on April 29th last ... He wrote: "This is
my last letter to you ... I am keeping it in my pocket, and if
I should be killed I hope somebody will mail it to you ... I'll
die not as a hero but as an ordinary young man who did all
he could to help overcome the forces of evil" Capt. Louis
M. Smith found the letter firmly grasped in the hands of the
dead soldier, and sent it on to his parents Recommended
is a very much worth-while article by Emil Ludwig, in the
current issue of The Answer Just out and already one of
the new season's best-sellers is Shalom Asch's "The Apos-
tle" Asch has three sons on active service with the U. S.
Army, by the way, and all his grandchildren are living in
his home for the duration.
HITPARADE ....
Orchids to the Daily Mirror's Weatherly for the twin cm-
toons entitled "What a Change at Brenner Pass," just pub-
lished a few days before Italy's total collapse "1942-
Hit and Muss" was the caption under the first picture, show-
ing the two fuehrers shaking hands in the shadow of the
great railroad bridge And the second drawing, showing
the bridge blasted to bits by Allied bombs, bore the title "1943
Hit and Mussed" Nine years ago Werner Janssen, the
distinguished American conductor, was kicked out of Berlin.
because, as guest conductor of the Berlin Harmonic Orches-
tra, he insisted on keeping Felix Mendelssohn's Third Sym-
phony on his program Today this baton-swinger is doing
his bit to kick Adolf out of Berlinby working on the swing
shift in a West Coast aircraft plant.
MARTIAL MUSIC ....
The Navy's Artie Shaw is seeing plenty of the Pacific
war theatre these days, and confesses that this business ot
chaperoning a band of service men in a battle zone has 18
worries The biggest of these is the question of how to
provide safety for the band instruments in the event of a Jap
attack ... At Guadalcanal Chief Petty Officer Shaw had his
men dig foxholes for their brasses The musical endj0'
Moss Hart's Army Air Corps show is being handled by Ser-
geant Dave Rose, while the construction and operation of the
five revolving stages to be used in the show is being super-
vised by the creator of that mechanism. Corporal Harry Horn-
er Harry Hershfield recently received a letter from his
old pal, Al Jolson, telling him that now "I do not smoke on
Saturday, and am eating greebeness" ... It didn't take long
for Harry to realize that Al had been writing from Eretz Israel.
ABOUT PEOPLE ....

Following the opening ceremonies of the Amer-
can Jewish Conference, the deliverations began.
The stature of Henry Monsky as a leader of
nanerican Jewry was tremendously increased as a
result of his opening address and the impartial
knanner in which he acted as chairman. As a press
Representative of The Jewish Floridian, I was fur-
aished, in advance, with the text of his address,
realize that the substance of a speech is not al-
vays shown by the applause of the audience as
foe speaker delivers his talk. Usually, the applause
Is the method adopted by the audience to show
heir agreement with the speaker's views. It was
plainly apparent, from the tremendous applause at
iiis every mention of Palestine as the Jewish Home-
Band, that the Zionists were in control of the Con-
ference from its very beginning. The audience
Eoudly applauded this statement by Monsky:
"Leadership must be responsive to the yearnings,
the aspirations and the hopes of those for whom
Ithey presume to speak." The delegates applauded
Monsky, when he spoke of the rescue of European
|jewry in these words:
"It has been said that 'post war' is 'post mortem'
[unless practical and effective measures of relief anr
{rescue are immediately inaugurated. Therefore,
notwithstanding the more limited phraseology of
Ithe agenda, plans for the immediate rescue of the
Ixemnant of our people in the Nazi occupied coun-
Itries must and will receive full and adequate con-
Isideration at this Conference. The time has come
Ito say less and do more about it." But, when he
Ibegan speaking of what role Palestine could play in
Imeeting the problems of our people in the post-war
[world, vociferous applause greeted this statement:
"The Balfour Declaration and the Palestine Man-
Idate, endorsed by fifty-two nations, concurred in by
[joint resolution of the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives of the United States of America, were
lhailed as documents of state, legally recognizing
[the historic connection of the Jewish people with
[Palestine and their right to rebuild their national
[home in that country." The applause was so great
'that it prompted Monsky to say, when it subsided:
"May I interpolate by saying you made a mis-
ake when you thought I devoted only one para-
[graph to Palestine."
Each of the following statments by Monsky
[brought loud applause:
"Can there be any question that Palestine in the
'light of long-term planning, presents the most real-
istic single opportunity for the resettlement of large
numbers of the unfortunate and harassed of our
people?"
"Can there be any doubt, that consonant with
the principles of freedom, justice and self-determina-
tion, basic in the war aims of the United Nations,
there will be after the complete triumph of Democ-
racies, an opportunity for the realization of the pur-
pose and aims of the Balfour Declaration and the
Palestine Mandate?"
(Continued Next Week)
Sportspourri: Mushy Callahan, son of a rabbi,
despite his unorthodox name adopted for the sports
world, was the first Jewish fighter to hold the junior
welterweight title of the world ... On the other hand,
Maurice Dubofsky, one of the greatest stars to come
out of Georgetown University, kept his name and
later became line coach at the Jesuit institution .
Maurice was also the son of a rabbi.
Harold Axelrod holds the American record for
surf casting with a heave of 137 feet And speak-
ing of fishing records, here are some interesting
items: Fred Weintraub is considered the best trout
fisherman west of the Rockies while Isadore Levine
the best fly fisherman east of the Mississippi.
Clifford Goldstein, the lone Jewish runner in the
3,000 meter race won recently by Gunder Hagg in
his American debut, was a fair-to-middling distance
runner while at City College Nonetheless, he
held his own and placed close behind the holder of
the American record, Gregory Rice Charles
Grossberg ran a spanking quarter mile at the A. A.
U. outdoor championships and though he smashed
every existing record for the distance could do no
better than fourth The competition was that keen.
Have You Heard That: Barney Ross considers
most men over thirty of little use as fighting units
in the armed forces Said the former triple-title
holder: "I was in top-notch condition for a fellow
my age and yet I couldn't take the gaff some of the
youngsters did out there on Guadalcanal. This is
a young man's war" Barney x& still recuperat-
ing in the St. Albans Naval hospital.
Joe Choynski, who died at the age of 74, was
the first Jewish heavyweight in the United States .
He never held the championship, but he won de-
cisions over Corbett, Jeffries and Sullivan His
longest fight lasted some 54 rounds in the days
when a round was over only when a man was
knocked off his feet And, whether you believe
it or not, the man with the most lethal punch in the
fight game in recent years was the haymaker pos-
sessed by that Madcap Maxie Baer However,
the experts agree that after one of Baer's punches
had killed Ernie Schaaf, he never could put his
heart into another punch.
WITH OUR FILM FOLK
Irving Berlin, with two units of his "This Is The
Army" show, will embark for overseas entertain-
ment in four weeks. His soldier cast must first com-
plete their basic training so as to be ready for active
combat when the tour is over.
Along the same line Playwright Moss Hart is
gathering talent for an Air Force play. He has been
given official permission to select performers from
any of the air bases in the country.
If you want to laugh and help others with every
chuckle, you may purchase Eddie Cantor's collec-
tion of humor. It will shortly be published in a vol-
ume as "The World's Best Jokes." All proceeds go
to the Refugee Children's Fund. The publishers are
pledged to give an equal amount to this charity.
The Zionist Front: By the time this is published
the convention of the Zionist Organization of Amer-
ica will have concluded in Columus, Ohio ... Dr.
Israel Goldstein, who has "made good" as presi-
dent of the Jewish National Fund in America, will no
doubt also display the same energy as newly elect-
ed president of the ZOA ... He has a way of put-
ting pep into an organization which he heads and
he has shown it not only as president of the JNF,
but also as the head of the Synagogue Council.
Zionists throughout the country will be interested to
learn that on the day that it was announced that
Italy had surrendered, the girls in the New York of-
fice of the Jewish National Fund celebrated the oc-
casion by collecting among themselves sufficient
funds to inscribe Gen. Dwight Eisenhower in the
Golden Book of the JNF Many Zionists have also
sent to JNF headquarters special contributions mark-
ing the victorious achievements of the Allies With
the expected arrival in the United States of King Ibn
Saud's son, Feisal, some Zionist leaders are asking
whether it would not be practical for American Jew-
ish gr<>j.'ps to meet him and welcome him His
arrival here will be utilized in Washington for the
purpose of negotiating Arab-Jewish reconciliation
in Palestine, though it is known that Ibn Saud is
outspokenly against the Jewish aspirations in Pal-
estine ... In case you didn't know, a third of King
Ibn Saud's total revenue is supplied by the Califor-
nia Arabian Standard Oil Company which has
leased, since 1939, a third of Saudi Arabia for the
exploitation of the oil wells there With the Pal-
estine problem attracting wide attention in Wash-
ington, the suggestion is made by some members of
Congress that the entire Palestinian situation be ex-
amined by a group of outstanding Americans who
should render an unbiased report Names listed
for this group include Gerard Swope of the General
Electric Company, Supreme Court Justice Owen D.
Roberts, Hamilton Fish Armstrong, editor of "For-
eign Affairs"; General Harold Knutson, Alfred Smith,
former governor of New York, and John W. Davis,
former Democratic candidate for president Also
suggested are: Harold Glenn Moulton, president
of the Brookings Institution; Wheeler Sammons, pub-
lisher of "Who's Who"; Anne O'Hare McCormick of
the New York Times; Gerald Shattuck, president of
the Schrafft Company, and Basil Harris, vice-presi-
dent of the U. S. Steamship Lines.

"Y" Youth Activities Start Next
Week
Group activities for boys and
girls from the ages of 6 years and
up will start next Monday after-
noon at 4 o'clock at the "Y."
These activities will include dra-
matics, supervised play, arts and
crafts, and clubs for boys and
girls of all ages. In order to be
admitted to these projects, child-
ren must register at the "Y" of-
fice as no one will be admitted
before first being registered.
Bob Rubenstcin will instruct
arts and crafts, Don McClosky
will have charge of supervised
play, and Hope Ellen Tannen-
baum will have charge of dra-
matics and clubs. Dancing classes
will begin at a later date.
"Y" to Sponsor Spanish Classes
Classes in Conversational Span-
ish will commence very shortly at i
the "Y." A competent teacher
has been engaged and registra-
tions are now being taken. Classes
will be limited. All those desir- |
ing to attend these classes are
urged to register immediately.
"Y" Team vs. Boy Scout*
The title of this may sound
somewhat facetious, but it actual-
ly happened. For a long time the
Boy Scouts have been clamoring
for a game with the "Y" regulars.
It finally came to pass that last
Sunday at the Riverside Play
Ground a diamondball game be-
tween the Y. M. H. A. and the
Y. M. H. A. Boy Scouts resulted
in a victory for the old timers by
the score of 10-2. However, much
can be said for the Boy Scouts.
They put up an excellent fight
and a great deal of talent can be
developed among them. They
played and lost like good sports.
It gave the youngsters a great
thrill to play with their Daddies
and brothers. Such competition
should and will be encouraged
at the "Y."

Back The AttackWith Bonds!
At the present moment, noth-
ing is more important than to
BACK THE ATTACK. Our
armed forces are making progress
on many frontsthey are having
tough sledding in Italy, at the
moment. A grim reminder that
the war is far from over, and has
not yet been won. The casualty
lists will be much longer before
we can lean back with a sigh
signalling the completion of a job
well done.
Tears will flow aplenty before,
the war is over, and the best we
can still be sure of is the promise
of Churchill of blood and sweat
and toil. Many who are of us.
and were in our midst, are car-
rying the burdens on the various
fighting fronts. Those of us at
home must BACK THEIR AT-
iTACK by buying War Bonds.
There is no choice, should you be
thinking of making one. War
Bonds must be bought and we
must buy them.

)AY. SEPTEMBER 17. 1943 +Jewish fktfkUan TIE I-JJHFEIEKE By LOUIS HEIMAN Press Representative of The Jewish Floridian n % nil Bins By MORRIS WEINER Copyright, 1943, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc. UTIEEIJOI UNO ME BY BORIS SMOLAR Copyright, 1943, Jewish Telegraph Agency, Inc. Following the opening ceremonies of the Amercan Jewish Conference, the deliverations began. The stature of Henry Monsky as a leader of nanerican Jewry was tremendously increased as a result of his opening address and the impartial knanner in which he acted as chairman. As a press Representative of The Jewish Floridian, I was furaished, in advance, with the text of his address, realize that the substance of a speech is not alvays shown by the applause of the audience as foe speaker delivers his talk. Usually, the applause Is the method adopted by the audience to show heir agreement with the speaker's views. It was plainly apparent, from the tremendous applause at iiis every mention of Palestine as the Jewish HomeBand, that the Zionists were in control of the Conference from its very beginning. The audience Eoudly applauded this statement by Monsky: % "Leadership must be responsive to the yearnings, % the aspirations and the hopes of those for whom Ithey presume to speak." The delegates applauded % Monsky, when he spoke of the rescue of European |jewry in these words: "It has been said that 'post war' is 'post mortem' [unless practical and effective measures of relief anr {rescue are immediately inaugurated. Therefore, % notwithstanding the more limited phraseology of Ithe agenda, plans for the immediate rescue of the Ixemnant of our people in the Nazi occupied counItries must and will receive full and adequate conIsideration at this Conference. The time has come Ito say less and do more about it." But, when he Ibegan speaking of what role Palestine could play in Imeeting the problems of our people in the post-war [world, vociferous applause greeted this statement: "The Balfour Declaration and the Palestine ManIdate, endorsed by fifty-two nations, concurred in by [joint resolution of the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, were lhailed as documents of state, legally recognizing [the historic connection of the Jewish people with [Palestine and their right to rebuild their national [home in that country." The applause was so great 'that it prompted Monsky to say, when it subsided: "May I interpolate by saying you made a misake when you thought I devoted only one para[graph to Palestine." Each of the following statments by Monsky [brought loud applause: "Can there be any question that Palestine in the 'light of long-term planning, presents the most realistic single opportunity for the resettlement of large numbers of the unfortunate and harassed of our people?" "Can there be any doubt, that consonant with the principles of freedom, justice and self-determination, basic in the war aims of the United Nations, there will be after the complete triumph of Democracies, an opportunity for the realization of the purpose and aims of the Balfour Declaration and the Palestine Mandate?" (Continued Next Week) Sportspourri: Mushy Callahan, son of a rabbi, despite his unorthodox name adopted for the sports world, was the first Jewish fighter to hold the junior welterweight title of the world ... On the other hand, Maurice Dubofsky, one of the greatest stars to come out of Georgetown University, kept his name and later became line coach at the Jesuit institution Maurice was also the son of a rabbi. Harold Axelrod holds the American record for surf casting with a heave of 137 feet And speaking of fishing records, here are some interesting items: Fred Weintraub is considered the best trout fisherman west of the Rockies while Isadore Levine the best fly fisherman east of the Mississippi. Clifford Goldstein, the lone Jewish runner in the 3,000 meter race won recently by Gunder Hagg in his American debut, was a fair-to-middling distance runner while at City College Nonetheless, he held his own and placed close behind the holder of the American record, Gregory Rice Charles Grossberg ran a spanking quarter mile at the A. A. U. outdoor championships and though he smashed every existing record for the distance could do no better than fourth The competition was that keen. Have You Heard That: Barney Ross considers most men over thirty of little use as fighting units in the armed forces Said the former triple-title holder: "I was in top-notch condition for a fellow my age and yet I couldn't take the gaff some of the youngsters did out there on Guadalcanal. This is a young man's war" Barney x& still recuperating in the St. Albans Naval hospital. Joe Choynski, who died at the age of 74, was the first Jewish heavyweight in the United States He never held the championship, but he won decisions over Corbett, Jeffries and Sullivan His longest fight lasted some 54 rounds in the days when a round was over only when a man was knocked off his feet And, whether you believe it or not, the man with the most lethal punch in the fight game in recent years was the haymaker possessed by that Madcap Maxie Baer However, the experts agree that after one of Baer's punches had killed Ernie Schaaf, he never could put his heart into another punch. WITH OUR FILM FOLK Irving Berlin, with two units of his "This Is The Army" show, will embark for overseas entertainment in four weeks. His soldier cast must first complete their basic training so as to be ready for active combat when the tour is over. Along the same line Playwright Moss Hart is gathering talent for an Air Force play. He has been given official permission to select performers from any of the air bases in the country. If you want to laugh and help others with every chuckle, you may purchase Eddie Cantor's collection of humor. It will shortly be published in a volume as "The World's Best Jokes." All proceeds go to the Refugee Children's Fund. The publishers are pledged to give an equal amount to this charity. The Zionist Front: By the time this is published the convention of the Zionist Organization of America will have concluded in Columus, Ohio ... Dr. Israel Goldstein, who has "made good" as president of the Jewish National Fund in America, will no doubt also display the same energy as newly elected president of the ZOA ... He has a way of putting pep into an organization which he heads and he has shown it not only as president of the JNF, but also as the head of the Synagogue Council. Zionists throughout the country will be interested to learn that on the day that it was announced that Italy had surrendered, the girls in the New York office of the Jewish National Fund celebrated the occasion by collecting among themselves sufficient funds to inscribe Gen. Dwight Eisenhower in the Golden Book of the JNF Many Zionists have also sent to JNF headquarters special contributions marking the victorious achievements of the Allies With the expected arrival in the United States of King Ibn Saud's son, Feisal, some Zionist leaders are asking whether it would not be practical for American Jewish gr<>j.'ps to meet him and welcome him His arrival here will be utilized in Washington for the purpose of negotiating Arab-Jewish reconciliation in Palestine, though it is known that Ibn Saud is outspokenly against the Jewish aspirations in Palestine ... In case you didn't know, a third of King Ibn Saud's total revenue is supplied by the California Arabian Standard Oil Company which has leased, since 1939, a third of Saudi Arabia for the exploitation of the oil wells there With the Palestine problem attracting wide attention in Washington, the suggestion is made by some members of Congress that the entire Palestinian situation be examined by a group of outstanding Americans who should render an unbiased report Names listed for this group include Gerard Swope of the General Electric Company, Supreme Court Justice Owen D. Roberts, Hamilton Fish Armstrong, editor of "Foreign Affairs"; General Harold Knutson, Alfred Smith, former governor of New York, and John W. Davis, former Democratic candidate for president Also suggested are: Harold Glenn Moulton, president of the Brookings Institution; Wheeler Sammons, publisher of "Who's Who"; Anne O'Hare McCormick of the New York Times; Gerald Shattuck, president of the Schrafft Company, and Basil Harris, vice-president of the U. S. Steamship Lines. it -to -to Military Information: An editor of a non-Jewish daily newspaper asks me whether any U. S. ships are named after Jews The answer is that so far five destroyers and three Liberty Ships have been named after Jewish patriots The Liberty Ships carry the names of Louis Marshall, Samuel Gompers and Haym Solomon The destroyers are named after Jewish heroes in the navy, three of whom have fallen in the present war in the Pacific These three are Lt.

In order to be admitted to these projects, children must register at the "Y" office as no one will be admitted before first being registered.

A competent teacher has been engaged and registrations are now being taken. Classes will be limited. All those desir| ing to attend these classes are urged to register immediately. "Y" Team vs. Boy Scout* The title of this may sound somewhat facetious, but it actually happened. For a long time the Boy Scouts have been clamoring for a game with the "Y" regulars. It finally came to pass that last Sunday at the Riverside Play Ground a diamondball game between the Y. M. H. A. and the Y. M. H. A. Boy Scouts resulted in a victory for the old timers by the score of 10-2. However, much can be said for the Boy Scouts. They put up an excellent fight and a great deal of talent can be developed among them. They played and lost like good sports. It gave the youngsters a great thrill to play with their Daddies and brothers. Such competition should and will be encouraged at the "Y." Bowling Tigers, sweeping their match with the Hi-Fliers, moved within a game of the pace-setting SUL ermeh, who scored a 2-1 victory over Canadian Aces, in the Y.M.

During the same session the following were elected vice-presidents of the ZOA for the ensuing year: Dr. Solomon Goldman. Judge Louis E. Levinthal. Edimund I. Kaufman, Louis Lipsky Judge Morris Rothenberg, Dr Abba Hillel Silver, Robert Szold, Dr. Stephen S. Wise, and Bern!ard Rosenblatt. Abraham Gold| man of New York was elected treasurer of the ZOA and Rabbi James G. Heller of Cincinnati was named as chairman of the National Administrative Council Dr. Silver, addressing the convention, said that what the world will do concerning the Jewish | people will be a true index to | the nature of the entire recon1 struction problem that will fol| low this war. "If the world will project the problem of the national rehabilitation of Israel the people who have been the most ravaged and victimized in this war. which possesses no political power and no military force to enforce its righteous claimsin a spirit of justice, vision and statesmanship, then there is really hope that all the great national and international problems will be solved with fairness j and justice by the statesmen of the world," he declared. President Roosevelt, in a message sent to the convention, stressed that "all feasible measures are being adopted to lessen the sufferings of the persecuted Jews of Europe." He expressed confidence that "the helpful contribution made by American citizens towards the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine will be ; continued." The text of the pres| ident's message reads: I "As the delegates to this con| ference assembled to consider means of alleviating the suffering of the Jewish people, I cannot but express my horror at the cruellies visited upon innocent people by Axis authorities in the territories they occupy. The attitude of this government in regard to these atrocities was ably expressed by the Secretary of State in a statement he issued on October 30. 1942. and I wish to emphasize that all feasible measures are being adopted to lessen the suffering of the persecuted | Jews of Europe. I am confident I that the helpful contributions mad by American citizens towards the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine will be continued." Daniel Frisch of Indianapolis announced that the Zionist Organization of America will launch a campaign to increase its membership for the coming year from 67,000 to 150,000. He stressed the need for a larger membership in the organization and urged the Jews of America to bend all efforts to swell the ranks of the Zionist Organization of America. In a resolution adopted at the. last day of the convention, the delegates appealed to the leaders of the United Nations to immediately initiate discussions with the Jewish Agency "in order to determine the role that Palestine must play in meeting the desperate needs of the dispossessed masses of the Jewish people and to secure its rightful place in the post-war world. The text of the resolution reads: "We demand the immediate termination of the prevailing policy of the mandatory power in the Palestine administration. We I reject the Palestine Administration's so-called post-war reconstruction plan for Palestine, which, based on the White Paper of 1939, is calculated to stifle these developments and reduce the Jewish homeland into a ghetto. We condemn the villification of the Jewish Agency brought about by the transformation of a military police court into a propaganda forum to impugn, the Palestine Jewish war effort. We deplore the censorship which has prevented a fair report of the magnitude and significance of Palestine's Jewish contributions to the winning of the war. L W < ;, ema nd the abrogation of the White Paper of 1939 and the opening of the gates of Palestine to a large Jewish immigration under the control and direction of the Jewish Agency which shall be vested with authority to develop the country to the maximum for the benefit of all its inhabitants. In the rebuilding of the Jewish commonwealth, we pledge full regard for the religious, linguistic, and cultural rights of the Arab population of Palestine, and the civil and religious equality of its inhabitants before the law. The inviolability of the holy places of the various religions shall be guaranteed. ,,"^' appeal to the leaders of the United Nations now that post war plans are maturing, to ini% }u Wlth ut delay discussions with the Jewish Agency for Palestine, that internationally designated spokesmen of the Jewish people, in order to determine the role which Palestine must play in meeting the desperate needs of the dispossessed masses of the Jewish people and to secure its rightful place in the post-war world. "We pledge all our resources to the end that the Jewish Commonwealth may be rebuilt on the foundations of a sound economic basis, of % an enlightened world opinion and of a world which will restore and safeguard the political rights of all peoples." The convention hailed the declaration of the American Jewish Conference, which calls for the reconstruction of Palestine as a Jewish Commonwealth and urged a mobilization of American public opinion for the attainment of this demand. NATIONAL COUNCIL The meeting of the board of directors of the National Council of Jewish Women Miami Section will be held Wednesday morning.

The casualty lists will be much longer before we can lean back with a sigh signalling the completion of a job well done. Tears will flow aplenty before, the war is over, and the best we can still be sure of is the promise of Churchill of blood and sweat and toil.

wJemsti Florid tin CTORY QSEESSi. Tlhe Jfewisih Vmaty VOLUME 16No. 38 MIAMI, FLORIDA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1943 PRICE TEN CENTS NEW MEMBERS NAZIS ARREST HEAD OF FRENCH JEWISH BODY The Y. M. H. A. membership drive started last Sunday night at a "kick-off" meeting at the Y auditorium. A small attendance was caused by inclement weather. The meeting was opened by Leo Ackerman, president of the "Y" who outlined the purpose of the drive. Addressing the gathering were: Bernard Sterling, chairman of the membership drive; George Wolpert, chairman of the publicity committee for the membership drive; George Chertkof, chairman of the board of directors; Milton A. Friedman, past president of the "Y", and Rabbi Max Shapiro. Sgt. Bela Urban rendered several violin selections accompanied by his wife, Virginia Urban. A great deal of friendly competition and rivalry in the "Y" drive is attributed to the interent in the Y that all the workers have been showing. George Wolpert will award a silver loving cup to'the person obtaining the highest number of individual members. The results at this time show a very keen competition. The drive will end Wednesday, September 22. Geneva (JTA)Raoul Lambert, Jewish leader and president of the central Jewish organization of French Jews permitted to exist under the Vichy regime, was arrested by German occupation authorities in Marseilles with his family, it was learned here. Andre Baur, vice-president of the same organization, was also arrested. More than 10,000 Jewish children are wandering through all parts of France as a result of the mass arrests and deportations of their parents. It is feared that these children will soon be rounded up by German occupation authorities and interned in a camp. Local Jewish relief groups in France are doing what they can to save the children, but without the aid of international organizations there is little likelihood that the youngsters will be saved. IDC ESTABLISH RELIEF OFFICE IN MIDDLE EAST OF ZOR RT MEETING Columbus, Ohio (JTA)Dr. Israel Goldstein, president of the Jewish National Fund of America for the past 10 years, was unaniSURRENDER OF ITALY AIDS HUNGARIAN JEWS Stockholm (JTA)Italy's unconditional surrender to the Allies will have repercussions not only in the Balkan countries, but also in Hungary and will affect the position of the Jews there, it is predicted in the Swedish press, which emphasizes that Hungary now has the largest Jewish population in Central Europe. The Goeteborg Handels-och Sjofarts-Tidning. a Swedish liberal newspaper, takes the occasion to again warn against the systematic attempts which are now being made by Hungarian propaganda to present the position of Jews in other parts of Europe. NAZI ATROCITIES IS Moscow (JTA)A "Black Book" describing Nazi atrocities against Jews in occupied Lithuania was published here this week. The facts, compiled by A. Serkin, contain horrible details of the Nazi mass-extermination of Jews in Kaunas, Vilkomir and other Lithuanian cities. The book also has a section describing the activities of Jewish guerilla fighters in occupied Lithuania. The correspondent of the Jewish Telegraph Agency today visited a hospital in which were a number of Lithuanian Jews who were wounded at the front while fighting with the Russian army. Itzik Shafirus, one of the wounded, pointed out that all six members of his family, former residents of Kaunas, are now fighting in the Russian ranks and that one of his brothers had killed 103 Germans in a machine-gun fight. "You will find many Jewish families from Lithuania all fighting together against the Germans." he said. DR. ISRAEL GOLDSTEIN mously elected president of the Zionist Organization of America at the afternoon session of the 36th national convention of the ZOA, which met here with more than 1.000 delegates in attend ance. He succeeds Judge Louis E. Levinthal who served as ZOA president for the past two years. In honor of Dr. Goldstein's election a check for $500,000 was presented to him on behalf of the Jerusalem (JTA)The ground work has been laid for intensified activities by the Joint Distribution Committee in the Middle East, including the relief and transportation of refugees and the sending of additional parcels to Polish-Jewish refugees in Russia, it was disclosed here by Dr. Joseph Schwartz, European director of the JDC, who is leaving for North Africa, from where he will go to JDC headquarters in Lisbon. In an interview with a Jewish Telegraphic Agency correspondent Dr. Schwartz reported that the JDC is planning to establish a permanent representation in the Middle East to deal with general relief problems and to secure first-hand information concerning the Jewish communities of occupied Europe. AID FOR JEWS IN JEWS' QUESTIONS NAZIS USED POISON GAS IN WARSAW WAR New York (WNS)The German soldiers who battled the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto at the time of its liquidation used, tanks, flame throwers, machine guns and poison gas to break the Jewish resistance. HIAS COMES TO AID OF REFUGEES IN SPAIN New York (WNS)The telegraphic remittance this week of $25,000 by the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigration Aid Society to the HIAS-ICA Emigration Association in Lisbon will facilitate the transportation too South America of many Jewish refugees now in Portugal and Spain, it was declared here this week by Isaac L. Asofsky, HIAS executive director. The money was cabled in response to an urgent request by Dr. James Bernstein who js in charge of the "Rescue Through Emigration" work in the Portuguese capital. The amount remitted will speed the departure of Jewish refugees from whom immigration visas to South American countries had already been obtained. (CONTINUED ON PACE 3) JEWS DENY CHARGES RECRUITI NG IS ILLEGAL Jerusalem (JTA)The question of whether it is lawful for the Jewish Agency to supervise the recruitment of Jewish volunteers in Palestine for the British armed forces was again raised this week at the military tribunal which is conducting the "Arms Trial." This time the question was raised by Dr. Philip Joseph, the counsel for the defense. While examining Golda Meirson. one of the leaders of the Histadruth. the Jewish lawyer referred to the statement made yesterday bv the president of the court, in which he questioned the legality of the Jewish Agency's recruiting activities. Zurich (JTA)A new Commissariat for Jewish Questions has been created within the Rumania Labor Secretariat, under a new law issued by the Ministry of Health. Labor and Public Welfare, the official German news agency. DNB, reported this week. The new commissariat. DNB says, will supervise the organization of Jewish forced labor, reduce the number of Jews in the professions and will supervise all Jewish centers and organizations for emigration. Hitherto, the last two functions were performed by the government Delegate for Settlement of the Jewish Question. The Bucharest radio this week announced that under a new amendment to the "Rumanization" Law severe punishment will be meted out to violators of the regulation. It also quotes an article in the anti-Semitic Iron Guard newspaper, Perunca Vremi, attacking Dr. William Filderman, Jewish leader, who was recently allowed to return to Bucharest from Transnistria. THE ALLIES Cairo (JTA)The question of arranging immediate assistance by the Joint Distribution Committee for 20.000 Jewish refugees from Nazi-held territories who have been interned in Italy since the outbreak of the war will be taken up with the Allied authorities at their headquarters in Algeria. Dr. Joseph Schwartz. European director of the J. D. C, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency this week. Dr. Schwartz said he is proceeding at once to Algeria to approach the representatives of the United Nations with regard to the best and most effective ways to deal not only with the situation of the Jewish refugees in Italy, but also with the special needs of the Italian Jewish population. He will also seek permission for a J. D. C. representative to be admitted into Italy in order to study the Jewish relief situation there and undertake necessary measures to cope with the special Jewish relief problems. While the immediate question of feeding Italy's pouplation is expected to be handled by the military authorities through the AMG. there is wide-range activity in the liberated territory which could best be discharged by private agencies, Dr. Schwartz believes. NAZI CHILD MURDERER TURNS GUN ON SELF MAURICE GROSSMAN Executive Director, Y. M. H. A. Berne (WNS)Heinrich Kurt, warden of the Lodz prison who once boasted that he had killed more than a thousand Jews with his own hands, has committed suicide, it was reported here this week. Kurt, the most feared and most hated Nazi jailer, once said that his favorite sport is to sit in a chair near an open window and to shoot Jewish children who happen to pass by. TOSCANINI CONDUCTS NBC SYMPHONY HOUR On Sunday, September 19. the General Motors Symphony of the Air Program, featuring the NBC Symphony, wiii be conducted by Maestro Arturo Toscanini. This will be the fourth in a series of special Toscanini concerts arranged by NBC for the U. S. Treasury Department to further the sale of War Bonds and Stamps. For his appearance on this date, Toscanini has selected an all-Bizet program. JEWS MEET DEMAND OF ARMY FOR CHAPLAINS New York (WNS)Jews are among the four denominations which on a month to month basis are either slightly ahead or are keeping pace with the procurement schedule for army chaplains, according to chief chaplain. ORDER OF PRESIDENT AIDS NATURALIZATION New York (WNS)A presidential order empowering the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization to grant exceptions, under certain circumstances, from enemy alien regulations for naturalization purposes, is expected to speed naturalization proceedings by three to six weeks, it was announced here last week by the National Refugee Service. The president's order excepts from the classification "enemy aliens" all persons "whom the Attorney General, the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization Service shall, after investigation fully establishing their loyalty, certify as persons loyal to the United States." This order eliminates the need, formerly incumbent upon the Commissioner and District Directors of Immigration and Naturalization, of submitting applications to the Attorney General. NAZIS LEFT NO JEWS IN KHARKO V ON LEAVING Moscow (JTA)The Nazis made Kharkov "completely judenrein" prior to their retreat from the capital of the Ukraine, it was reported here today by Chaim Kazhdan. commander of a Red Army tank battalion who was among the first Russian soldiers to enter the city. The Jewish commander stated that he took special interest in establishing whether any Jews remained alive in the vicinity of Kharkov. Captain Kazhdan related that hundreds of Jews succeeded in escaping from Kharkov during the Nazi occupation and in joining the Russian forces by walking days and nights through the woods. These Jews brought valuable information to the Russian army, he added. NAZIS REVIVE RACIAL LAWS IN ROME, ITALY Berne (WNS)The revival of the anti-Jewish laws by the Nazis upon their capture of Rome has driven many Jews to find shelter at the Vatican, it was disclosed here this week. Among the 200 Jews who are reported housed at the Vatican are many communal leaders. GEORGE WOLPERT Chairman Publicity Committee Y. M. H. A. Drive

BOX 2973 PHONE 2-1141 One Year, $2.00 Six Months, $1.00 Entered as Second Class Matter July 4, 1940, at MIAMI, FLA., FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 17, 1943 the Post Office of Miami, Florida, under ELLUL 17, 5703 the Act of March 3, 1879 VOLUME 16 NUMBER 38 I. E. A. ONCE MORE As we go to press another attempt is being made to revive and put into operation the now oft-tried and failed Jewish Education Association. There are some that will question the foregoing statement. Their assumption in our opinion would be that the J. E. A. is not being revived but that further plans are in the process of effecting a successful Jewish Education Program for this community. Call it what you may, we point a finger of caution at the leaders of J. E. A. They are not profiting by their mistakes of the past. Experience is a dear teacher and the trials and tribulations resulting in the downfall of the J. E. A. and this group under other names should be a guiding lesson for future action. Conferences were held in New York. Directors were investigated and interviewed and possibly by the time this publication is in the hands of its readers the handful of adherents of a shell of a Jewish Education Association will have adopted a motion hiring a director and having him on his way to our city. Have these gentlemen solved the problem in the Southwest'' Have they the answers to the questions of the Miami Beach organizations that wilf secure their cooperation and their joining this program? Have they a sound financial budget that is not problematical but factual? Have they a program that has been accepted and approved by the constituent bodies? Do constituents exist to this organization that has not lived up to its agreements with these members? Is there a J. E. A.? We clearly see that once more will the hit and miss method be put into operation. Community funds will once again be risked. A professional directorthat is sorely needed and definitely a necessity where there is something to directwill be brought here with an education association but the figment of imagination emanating from a left-over embryonic skeleton of former attempts. Miami has grown. It is not the infant so many believe it still to be. Just any old plan will not have the support nor can it be pressured into the laps of any synagogue or temple. This, our leaders have failed to realize. They discussed with the National head of the Education Association his coming here for. a survey of our community. What is the best plan for this area? What must be done to fill and meet educational needs of this community? What structure must the form of this organization be in its beginning 0 What plan will satisfy and secure the cooperation of existing agencies? What set-up will eliminate and do away with the objections of previous attempts? These and many more are the questions that the leaders of Jewish Education here must ask themselves. A satisfactory answer must be reached before we attempt to span a bridge that previous jumps have failed to cross. This survey must be made! Fully cognizant are weand we lay ourselves wide open with this statementof the deplorable state and lack of a satisfactory education program in our community. We have supported and are in favor of a unified education program. Once again we must cry out and reiterate previous editorializing. A successful Jewish Education Association must be carefully planned. The organizational work must be accomplished before a director is secured. The stamp of approval which brings with it participation must be obtained from the community and the majority of existing agencies now serving this endeavor. The scope of this endeavor under an association must be clearly outlined and its limitations definitely defined. Better that they be conservative and limited in a program at the outset and be successful than all encompassing and doomed to failure. With these items on a completed agenda then will this community have as an integral part a serviceable supported and satisfying Jewish Education Program. HOME HOSPITALITY As this season of the year rolls around the hospitality group of the Jewish Welfare Board local Army and Navy Committee finds itself exerting every effort in extending hospitality to those in service that find themselves in our community at this time. Home hospitality means much to those who are away from home and especially at the High Holy Days. Normal living as compared to their present mode is a vast comparison and for the majority a radical and revolutionary charge. This touch of home away from home, this opportunity to spend the Holidays in a Jewish atmosphere and environment is one of the strongest of morale providers. It instills courage and provides a brief period of relaxation and home surroundings that fill the individual with the feeling of getting back to the job and finishing it so that once more they can return to normal. Many families, when asked last year to extend the hospitality of their home on this occasion graciously did so. In many instances there was disappointment because of last minute Military Orders. Control of these factors are beyond the efforts of any group and our residents must realize these are war times and there are war time regulations. Past experiences of this nature must be overlooked and every effort extended to provide hospitality for as many of those in service as possible. Do your partcall the J. W. B. today, 9-1323, and avail yourself of an opportunity to serve the home front. -TIDBITS FROM AAA&CH IS", jANV'OTHERfcVEAQ ONLV K PEW cewrs MARCH 15, 194* Muctfy eottfcdetdicd By PHINEAS J. BIRON ______ LISTEN HERE .... Aftermath of the American Jewish Conference: There's a possibility of the Conference reconvening within the next few months, probably in the city of Chicago Clamor will not die as to why the Conference didn't take up the problems of anti-Semitism in this country You may not have known it, incidentally, but there was a strong group which wanted the Conference completely dissolved after this first conclave Queen Wilhelmina of The Netherlands, who celebrated her birthday very quietly in exile a couple of weeks ago, hopes to mark the occasion in her traditional manner next summer The traditional manner includes, in addition to any number of official receptions and other functions, a personal visit by Her Majesty to the Joden Breetstraat (Main Street of the Jews) and other parts of the American Jewish quarter.
